What is Airstream Biofilm Clearance?

It can also help lift light surface staining, so teeth often feel smoother afterwards.
How is ABC different from a standard hygiene clean?
Both support gum health — the difference is the main focus.
- ABC: prioritises biofilm removal and a smooth finish; can help with light surface stains.
- Hygiene: prioritises plaque and hardened tartar (calculus) removal, plus tailored home-care advice.
We’ll recommend the best option based on build-up, gum health, and sensitivity.
Does Airstream Biofilm Clearance hurt?
Most people find ABC comfortable. You’ll feel cool spray and gentle airflow.
If you have sensitive teeth or sore gums, tell us — we can adjust settings and take breaks as needed.
Will ABC remove stains from tea, coffee, or smoking?
ABC can reduce surface stains, especially from tea/coffee and some smoking stains.
Deeper or internal staining won’t change with cleaning — if that’s your goal, we can discuss whitening options.
How long does an ABC appointment take?
Timing depends on build-up and how easily the biofilm lifts, but many appointments are straightforward.
We’ll confirm the expected length when we assess your mouth and discuss your goals.
